Hey Bleepers! Basketball Wives LA makes the Miami chicks look like the Red Hat Ladies or something. These ghetto, unclassy ladies are delivering just what the doctor, or in this case Shaunie O'Neal, ordered. Foolishness!! So, let the games begin...We left off last week with the ladies giving Malaysia (aka LaQuesha) from Compton and Tanya (aka Strawnjay) a hard time. Gloria's rat-tastic sister, Laura, and Malaysia exchanged words and later on blows. This week, we saw that conclusion of that incident in which LaQuesha was (somewhat) victorious. Everybody in the camera crew had to get involved and so on. If you let some tell it, they'd say Laura only got truly mad after Quesha called her fat as the "hoodrat" comment didn't seem to phase her. Christina Rose agrees....
We spent the entire episode discussing the fight, listening to the ladies choose sides, and give anybody who didn't jump in a difficult time over it. And by "anybody", I do mean Tanya. She proceeded to tell them that she is too classy to be breaking up no fight she didn't start. She drinks champagne and gets her dreads done...in that order.
As we continued on in Ghettopolis, Gloria introduced her new flunkie to the group, Draya. Here are some stats on Miss Dray: ex-girlfriend to several professional athletes, mother, ex-stripper, and newest fall person on BBW LA. Gloria has taken a liking to her likely for these reasons. Draya joined the girls for the first time to exercise in the park. Imani, who I still don't quite know yet, judged her immediately. She pretended to know who Draya was, all the guys she dated, etc. Of course, Draya did say something to Imani about her own relationship (or past one) which Imani didn't like. So, maybe Draya can thank herself for painting the target on her back.
Meanwhile, Jackie Christie, wife to Doug Christie, is a bit of a judger on this show as well. A little background on Mrs. Jackie?? Well, she's infamous in the league as the clingiest bball wife. She followed her husband to every game, every night, and in every locker room. So when she voiced her opinion of Tanya (you know, the one that wouldn't get involved in the fight), she said she didn't trust anyone. Ya think? All the basketball players of that time period HATE Jackie. HATE. Anyway, we know for sure she doesn't care for Tanya, but I don't think she cares too tough for Draya or Malaysia either. Next week, we'll see if her ponytail gets any thicker....SPOILER ALERT: It won't.
Her Rat-ness, Laura, didn't waste anytime explaining to us where all this aggression she's showing is coming from. We witnessed a conversation with her mom, Gloria Sr., and Gloria, er, Jr., as she discussed needing some psychiatric assistance with all this anger she has. She notes that Malaysia was likely a victim of said anger. She decided at that point to schedule an apology meeting. She and Malaysia brought their sisters as they got involved in the shenanigans too...In the end, the rats agreed to disagree and moved on...
In other news, all the ladies agreed to go to a Passion Party....little did we know, that meant "passion" philosophically. This party's host didn't come in with sex toys, she came in with words of wisdom and advice--a life coach. Who throws a passion party with a life coach? These lames, that's who. This lady's bright idea for togetherness was to have the ladies write an adjective anonymously to describe each other. I guess she forgot to mention that the words should be positive. One of Draya's words? Worthless. I got $5 for the first guess on who wrote that....You guessed it. Our resident judgy heffa, Imani. We didn't find that information out until the other nosy/scary tricks in the room admitted that they did NOT write that about her. Of course that left Imani who stated "this isn't the time or place to discuss this". Well, Imani, what you're saying is, it was the time and place to say it, but it ain't the time to say why? Uh huh. Bye. That comment pushed me over the edge. Imani has been engaged for 9 years...and now I see why. I don't know who I hate more, grease monger, Meeka, or Imani. We'll see over the next few weeks....chime in bleeples. I'd like to hear what you thought....'til next time.
xoxo, Christina Rose
